Cool Farm Tool definition

Cool Farm Tool. To define the on-farm carbon sequestration potential, Solidaridad often applies the Cool Farm Tool (CFT). CFT is an online tool that enables the tracking of on farm environmental impacts and improvements, specifically related to GHGs, biodiversity and water. It is unique in that it is useful at both ends of the supply chain. On the one hand it allows farmers to use it to develop action plans and to understand how their decisions influence the sequestration of carbon and/or reduce GHG emissions. On the other hand it also enables companies to manage supply chain emissions to encourage, motivate, track and reward continuous improvement. CFT is a scientifically robust tool in the complex arena of carbon accounting. ● Agrolearning: Agrolearning is a platform that connects the knowledge and educational content of existing public and private partners, with the pre-identified training needs of the producers and field technicians, offering more tailored training and education. Agrolearning provides educational tools in virtual, face-to-face and mixed modalities, which makes it possible to reach more producers, in particular women and youth, and efficiently monitor their training process. Although Agrolearning runs as an independent education platform, it is able to offer users personalized learning journeys through an adaptive learning model, as a result of the integration of Agrolearning with Extension Solution through a Data Lake. This integration also allows monitoring of the impact of training initiatives on the farm's agronomic and sustainability performance and the effectiveness of the support materials provided after the completion of training activities.
